With the news that the ECB has announced no professional cricket until July at least and with no mention yet of recreational cricket resuming this year, Hethersett and Tas Valley still have bills to pay and with a reduced income. Vital income from sponsorship income is currently down by 62% on 2019. The ECB will donate £100 to our cause once we have raised £100 towards our target. We have decided to set up this page to help contribute towards the revenue lost from various income streams. We want to ensure that Tas remains a place that the whole community to come to enjoy cricket and with exciting plans to develop our training facilities, every penny counts. It is vitally important that community assets such as our club can continue to thrive after this crisis ends, which it will.

What we'll deliver:

• Help to pay for overheads during the COVID-19 crisis
• Cover ground maintenance and key running costs
• Cover lost income from bar takings and sponsorship

Why it's a great idea:

As the cricket season has yet to commence and the lockdown started at the time at which we traditionally collect membership and sponsorship fees, we have a limited income to support our outgoings. We love our club and want to ensure that we can emerge from this crisis in as strong a position as possible

Steps to get it done:

• Run crowdfunding to collect funds
• Pay for overheads
• Plan for the resumption of cricket
